[General Questions and Answers] petehippy:
Hi, I've been trying to hunt down an answer to my problem with no avail, hopefully someone here can help. I've a rooted Huawei y300 0100 back on factory stock again.

My problem is this after I rooted (went fine first time doing this) installed TWRP created backups, Flashed Fusion x rom no problems at all, found a few bugs thought I would try another ROM, restored my stock from twrp saved backups all good I thought...

Upon re entering recovery everything is fine, factory wipe etc then when it comes to installing any ROM I get the message E: cannot open zip. This happens on any ROM I try, so I know its not the file, file can also be opened on PC and phone explorer.I've formatted the external SD card and re-downloaded ROMs still nowt.

I would just use the stock again and run a new launcher and delete the bloat myself but I can't get Orbit working at all now I'm rooted and back on factory stock when it was working fine on fusionx and orbit/Pandora are pretty much what I did all this for :)

Any ideas would be appriecated as I'm pretty noobish at this.

Would installing cwm over the top of twrp work?

Do I need to do a special kind of wipe in case of file corruption?
[General Questions and Answers] petehippy:
Solved, after some fiddling got flashing working again. What worked for me was to redownload the file direct to internal SD and flashing from there. Downloading anywhere else ie PC or ext SD and copying across still gave same error. Not sure why but I've flashed 3 ROMs today without issue this way. Hope this helps anyone else who encounters this.
[General Questions and Answers] greentoenail:
Hey Pete, did you flash rom from Int. Sd card or ext. sd card?? Getting the same problem flashing DN3 for note 2 on TWRP 2.7.2.0.
[General Questions and Answers] PeeeWeee:
Yay!

ABSOLUTELY confirmed. I was trying it for days. After finding this post, direct downloading to sdcard worked for me.
[General Questions and Answers] zenofilter:
yeeah... thank you bro
[General Questions and Answers] mrmabs:
I also had problems with "unable to open zip file" and "bad" errors, seemed to be fixed by formatting a spare 4gb MicroSD to FAT and making sure it was the first thing copied to the SD card. I was using PHILZ recovery, but I'd assume that TWRP will work just as well. I have a suspicion it may have something to do with file fragmentation or maybe allocation block size. Before this I checked MD5SUMs on a few MicroSD cards and they were all perfect, so it wasn't a download or copy corruption, the bootloader just has an issue with the file or filesystem for some reason.
[General Questions and Answers] starboyk:
Can confirm. Was having trouble installing Boeffla 3.0 kernal on gnabo 4.4.2 (v8). ( samsung galaxy note 10.1 n801x / n8013 )

Deleted the zips I downloaded, then re-downloaded straight to zip. installed like a boss!

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] tietze11:
This is a most underrated thread.

Just had the same issue with my old Galaxy S3. Needed to copy the zip directly to internal storage via mtp in twrp.

In newer twrp version it shows zip file corrupt instead of unable to open zip.

I personally have been waiting for Nova to be updated for KitKat...mostly for the transparent navbar/status bar. And the beta started today!

Heres the list of changes from the AndroidPolice post.

Now there are a few ways to get it. I'll let this page explain it. I would recommend doing it through Google+ instead of just downloding the apk. That way you get updates automatically through the PlayStore.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ArkAngel06:
Stock, but I assume you mean the dock icons which is Minimal UI Icon Pack
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Onecton:
because :victory: its now a swipe to the right :highfive:

i know it sounds stupid, but ist some sort of a feature that it pops right up on the right, and yes its easy accessible with a swipe from the bottom... but hey every one since 4.0 can swipe up... we with 4.4 want to swipe right

at least that is my mindset, but well i can get rid of that, since the icons are super huge and i dont like that and i used nova since ages :laugh:

so i can live with swipe up.... because big icons nagg me more

You can use LMT launcher 2.0 rc4 (google it).Also one way to remove soft buttons, is through editing build.prop and add an extra line at the end (qemu.hw.mainkeys=1).

Both LMT and editing build.prop needs root

have they incorporated Google Now hot word detection yet? and swipe to GoogleNow

No, and probably won't ever be able to.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] AndrasLOHF:
That's DashClock on my home screen in the pic. I do have it set as my lockscreen widget too though.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] THE_KINGDOM:
That's a bit pessimistic, I would say they definitely will be able to. Launchers have always been very very customizable, far exceeding Google's stock launcher.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ArkAngel06:
Google Now is a close sourced app. Google doesnt allow other apps to tap into it at the moment.

They may be able to come up with a neat gesture to launch the Google Now app, but not much more than that, unless Google opens it up more.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] dagaetch:
The dev is looking into something like a fullscreen google now widget that you could put on the leftmost screen, for similar functionality.

No, I still have them. Did you disable lockscreen widgets in your security settings?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] sluflyer06:
It helps to read the thread before posting. Google Now as it is implemented with the GEL cannot be done with 3rd party launchers. You need to swipe up from the soft keys IIRC.

[MENTION=4946517]Arkang[/MENTION]le06: Yeah that's what I was talking about. Thought it happened because I choose Nova then froze Google Launcher in Titanium Pro but that wasn't it. Lockscreen widgets are enabled....so not sure what happened. No biggie though.

EDIT: Apparently that function on the home screen is part of the hardware keys when the phone is unlocked. I've been running full screen the past couple days and just re-enable the soft keys and the Google and camera function came back
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Lannyx1:
maybe google now can be implemented by hosting the app in a widget ?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] lfbuccat:
I have been using Nova Launcher the minute I got my N5. Even before 4.4 I always had a quick on finger swipe up gesture shortcut to launch google now. The way I do it with kitkat now is that I make a gesture shortcut to launch the default launcher that is swiped to the google now pane. I always thought this is actually more convinient than having a pane dedicated to google now.

The only thing missing from Nova is the google hotword recognition from anywhere on the homescreen. Open Mic+ is promising but it is not as snappy.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Lucke:
Never used Nova before, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. I've got the beta installed, and like it so far, but if I purchase Prime, will that over ride the beta?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] vegalinho:
If you purchase Prime, you won't lose any Settings. Prime isn't a real app, it just unlocks more features.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Lucke:
i get that, but i just wanted to make sure that the beta would work the same way as the standard app when purchasing Prime. but thanks :good:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] sn0warmy:
Love the update but still holding off on using Nova launcher full time until the transition of transparent nav/status bars is 100% fluid when going into/out of the app drawer to home screen.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] vegalinho:
Yes, Prime doesnt change anything there, the beta would work the same way if you purchased Prime.

You would need a supporting kernel to enable fast charge. And its suppose to make USB and lower quality charger draw more power thus charging faster.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] legendnexus:
Do you mind suggesting a kernel you have used for fast charging?

And I'm mostly using the LG's original charger w 1.2A. So as far as you're saying you use the kernel and the app with a lower chargers, I wonder does it make the original charger even faster?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] HTC-Gunge:
Firstly to the original poster, thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for! Moved from Apex to Nova and not looking back!

Few questions I read in the thread that I think I can answer:

Yes, Nova Settings -> Drawer -> Check Small Tabs

I only setup one tab for apps and I removed the widgets (done under drawer groups) and I also set menu action to none. Now my app draw looks like the stock app draw.

Yes, Nove Settings -> Look and Feel -> Icon Size

If like me you come from Apex Launcher it doesn't seem possible to set one size for normal icons and another for dock icons but in the dock menu you can set dock icons to be slightly smaller.

Not sure what you mean. For me it seems 100% fluid.

One other thing I've done is to set the home button to go to "google now" app when on my home screen. Which I think is easier / nicer than swiping it up or swiping right...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] cobyman7035:
does that work on franco kernel? nope, i think its the kernel that won't enable fast charge, not the app
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] SqueakyWizard:
Loving this beta update! Goodbye black navigation bar!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] sn0warmy:
When you switch from lockscreen to home screen the nav/status bars don't fade fluidly to become transparent. They just tick from black to transparent. Same thing happens when you go from app drawer to home screen. This definitely is not as fluid as the stock launcher transition. I know it's minor but just looks "bad" in my opinion.

EDIT: Never mind, it's been fixed! I'm not sure what update fixed it but it's smooth as silk now. Finally back to Nova!!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] thekid1982:
in my phone , at the nav bar it is not transparent fully. please help
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] HTC-Gunge:
Cool, yeh thats what I couldnt understand as mine seemed silky smooth. :)

---------- Post added at 08:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ----------

Couple of things I would try:

1) change the wallpaper - does it make a difference?

2) in nova options un-tick the option to show shadow - does it make a difference?

3) remove the dock background - does it make a difference?

4) how about resetting the whole app?

5) un-install / re-install?

with 4+5 if it removes it to start with then slowly add back your current setup checking if what ever setting you have change causes the issue. If you do identify what causes it then post back here and inform the developer.

I also just noticed your using a custom rom and some mod for the center clock so it might be nothing to do with the launcher..

I have had my Exec for a couple of months now and have finally given in and had to remove the o2 software. I have all the settings to replace but I cant get mms to work right. I fill in all the server settings but it never creates the MMS inbox under the message section.

I do not get the same phone interface either with no video call button.

Is there a way of configuring the device with the o2 software installed and then copying some of the files to my sd card then doing the corporate install and copying the files back???

any ideas????
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jonesy:
damn exec...

other than that can someone confirm I am removing the o2 software correctly.. :?

I am doing a hard reset and as you get the 3 second warning that the o2 active software is going to be installed I then do a soft reset.

I then let it start up but it seems there is a lot more than the o2 software not installed?? :x

any ideas people??? :D

I am attempting to factory unlock a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 originally on the T-mobile network and place a Verizon sim card into the phone.

I have done hours of research to find that I have a few options.

1. I need to purchase an unlock code from a website (that hopefully won't scam me)

2. Contact the carrier to see if they will give me an unlock code

3. Use the service menu on the phone to mess with some "Network Lock" settings

I have spoken with a friend of mine who said that even if I pursue any of these options, the phone will still not function because I am trying to go from a GSM network to a CDMA network. He said the data will function but the phone calls will not come in.

I am in desperate need of some help if anyone can respond. Thanks.

Do Not follow this thread.

Discovered that my Nexus7 is, in fact, the 2012 model for which I was led to believe, by the, to have been the latest 2013 2nd edition model.

2013 Nexus7, 16GB WiFi Edition

This is a full fledge Ubuntu Linux distro for the Nexus7 Tablet.

I've discovered the following:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7

I've installed Ubuntu Linux 13.04 on my 2013 WiFi Nexus7 16GB.

So far, seems to work fairly well. Even the onscreen keyboard.

The Nexus7 Boot Image and System Userspace Image can be found at:

http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/13.04/release/

After installing the automated installer on your Ubuntu Linux computer:

1. Add the attached modified checksum file to your /Downloads/UbuntuNexus7 folder

2. Replace installer script at /usr/bin with attached modified installer script

3. Be sure to remove the .txt from the attached files.

Everything will install smoothly from that point onward.

Well, in all fairness, Linux on Android runs Linux apps on the Android kernel (which is, of course, Linux). That's not quite the same as having a bootable copy of a full distro like Ubuntu. I would think performance on the full install ought to be better. I've run the Linux on Android on the Galaxy Tab 2 quite a bit and it is great, though.

I went and tried this myself (for science :p), and I can confirm it doesn't work. It doesn't get past the Google bootloader screen.

Anybody else looking to attempt this should backup their TWRP/CWM backups to their computer, as flashing this completely wipes the tablet.

I learnt that the hard way. Good thing I had nothing important on it.
